SESAME STREET?


Phil: That guy just asked me if I worked on “Sesame Street”!?!


Annalicia: What?


Phil: Yeah...do you think they have a Taiwanese version of the show here?


Annalicia: I have no idea!


Phil: He said he knows a lot of foreigners here who work on “Sesame Street”.


Annalicia: Really?!?


Phil and Annalicia: Hmmm?!? (shrug they’re shoulders and let it go easily knowing it’s not the most strange or confusing thing they’ve ever heard, seen or been asked in Taiwan)


(A few days later, Phil and Annalicia found out “Sesame Street” is a chain of English cram schools! :)

  1. Haha! So many fun miscommunications when traveling and living in a different culture :)

    THANKS for the letter Annalicia! It was such a nice surprise, and I agree, it's definitely nice (even though we're both environmentalists and like to save things, like paper) to get REAL mail :)

    Good luck with the rest of the school year, and yes, we will definitely have to plan something fun for the summer to catch up with you guys upon your return!!!

    Smile!
